Definitions

  • the invention relates to a radial shaft sealing ring for the gap between a rotatable shaft and a surrounding, fixed housing.
  • a sealing ring of the type mentioned above is known from CH-PS 471 992.
  • the projections which effect the dynamic sealing are arranged on a conical surface, and they serve exclusively to return the sealed medium from the sealing edge which effects the static sealing.
  • the return effect achieved increases with increasing shaft speed, and to the same extent that the medium to be sealed is kept away from the sealing edge which effects the static sealing, the proportion of the amount of heat dissipated per unit of time by the sealed medium decreases. This can result in a large build-up of heat at the sealing edge and, at high shaft speeds, embrittlement or burning of the rubber-elastic sealing material.
  • a radial shaft sealing ring is proposed, the sealing lip of which has return ribs arranged on a cylindrical surface, the area of which is delimited by statically acting sealing edges on both sides in the axial direction.
  • the space between the sealing edges is directly connected to the sealed space through the sealing lip through openings that penetrate in the radial direction.
  • both in technical and in economic terms such radial shaft seals are not yet completely satisfactory.
  • the two sealing edges are acted upon in different ways by the medium conveyed back into the sealed space by the return ribs and accordingly cooled differently. The risk of premature damage, in particular to the outer sealing edge, is thus insufficiently eliminated.
  • the proposed shaft sealing ring resembles in its outer shape and in terms of its practical application a design according to CH-PS 471 992 mentioned at the beginning. In contrast to this, however, all the functional elements which effect the actual sealing are combined in a sealing surface which is parallel to the axis of the sealed Shaft extends.
  • the projections which effect the dynamic sealing have the shape of damming ribs which extend radially inwards from a cylindrical surface of the sealing ring surrounding the shaft at a distance and which form an angle with the axis of rotation of the shaft, thereby in the direction of the sealed medium open chambers are formed.
  • the annular spring which presses the sealing lip onto the shaft is dimensioned such that the spring force is compensated for by the radially outwardly directed hydrodynamic force which builds up at high shaft speed.
  • the sealing ring is thereby expanded in the radial direction, and the sealing edge and the return ribs are at a distance from the surface of the sealed shaft.
  • the proposed shaft seal therefore works without wear.
  • the size of the distance increases with increasing shaft speed and remains constant when a certain shaft speed is reached. It is directly dependent on the size of the hydrodynamic forces acting in the sealing gap and therefore a good seal is guaranteed regardless of the respective shaft speed. As the shaft speed decreases, the width of the gap decreases until the shaft comes to a standstill and the sealing edge is pressed against the sealed shaft.
  • the sealing of the gap in this operating state is of a purely static nature. Since the sealed medium is no longer returned to the sealed area to a large extent immediately before the shaft comes to a standstill, sufficient wetting and sufficient lubrication of the sealing edge are ensured. This can be cylindrical, which results in an improvement in the general wear behavior. The dimensional relationships existing on the new shaft sealing ring between the sealing edge and between the retaining ribs are thereby retained and it is not necessary to grind in the shaft sealing ring in order to achieve its operability.
  • the radial shaft sealing ring 18 consists of an annular, rigid stiffening ring 20 with an angular profile made of sheet steel and a sealing ring 22, which is vulcanized onto the radially inward leg of the stiffening ring.
  • the sealing ring therefore consists of a rubber-elastic material.
  • the sealing ring has a central axis 13 which coincides with that of the shaft 12 and contains an integral, radially inwardly extending, flexible inner part 24 which ends in an annular sealing surface 26.
  • the sealing surface slides on the outer circumference of the sealed shaft 12.
  • the sealing surface is limited in the direction of the sealed medium by the conical surface 40 of the sealing ring 24, in the direction of the outside air by the conical surface 50.
  • the sealing ring has an annular circumferential groove 30 radially outside of the sealing surface, in which the helical spring 32 is mounted.
  • the coil spring is a tension spring, which is directed radially inwards Exerts force on the sealing ring 24.
  • the sealing surface 26 is delimited on the side facing the outside air by a cylindrical circumferential sealing edge 34, on the side facing the sealed medium by the partial area 38 which effects the dynamic sealing. This consists of a space surrounding the shaft even at a standstill, Cylindrical surface 26 of the sealing ring 24 on which the radially inwardly extending baffle ribs 44 are arranged.
  • the cylindrical surface 26 thus extends parallel to the sealing surface of the sealing edge 34 on the side of the sealing ring facing the sealed medium.
  • the inner surfaces 46 of the ribs 44 are arranged on an interrupted, cylindrical surface which has a diameter which is not smaller than that of the sealing edge 34 which effects the static sealing.
  • the cylindrical surface 42 and the retaining ribs 44 form chambers 48 which in Direction of the sealed medium are open.
  • the annular helical spring 32 exerts a spring force which presses the circumferential sealing edge 34 against the sealed shaft 12 so as to prevent the sealed medium, for example a liquid, from flowing out along the shaft 12.
  • the chambers 48 are open in the direction of the sealed medium, and this means that the sealing surface 36 and the inner surfaces 46 of the ribs 44 can be lubricated to a sufficient extent to prevent heating during the initial phase of the shaft start.
